The popularity of cryptocurrency is growing at a high rate. If ever there was a time to invest in cryptocurrency now seems to be the ideal opportunity.
However it doesn't seem to be beneficial to invest in coins like Bitcoin because of the current value and growth potentials (on the other hand who knows for sure how much growth is left in the ol' BTC?). But there are a lot of other ways to earn some nice crypto who can still go to the moon.
One chance to snag some nice crypto is to buy cryptocurrency through Pre-ICO's. A Pre-ICO is a way for a project to get some starting capital before the ICO kicks off.
The benefits of the Pre-ICO are that you can either buy the cryptocurrency at a reduced price or get bonus coins.
If you have bought coins in a Pre-ICO you have a better chance of selling off your investment when the ICO goes live and/or ends. It probably won't make you a crypto millionaire but you can get some nice profits.
There are some higher risks involved of course with participating in a Pre-ICO therefore it is wise to do some background checking before you buy.
A good way of checking if a Pre-ICO (or ICO) is worth your trouble is to check ICO Bench. You can find a list of upcoming Pre-ICO funded projects on this Pre-ICO list.
If you are looking to buy some cryptocurrency for a bargain for long or short term investments then Pre-ICOs are the way to go.
By participating in a bounty you can get some free coins by promoting an ICO. Usually it comes down to writing an article on a social media platform, help with translations, referrals or other forms of promotion.
It is not unlike what you can do on Utopian.io except you earn coins from the ICO. Again this won't make you rich but it never hurts to earn some free crypto one way or the other.
You can find a list of bounty programs here.
Of course you can always go to Utopian.io and earn Steem there. Just login with your Steem account and check out the possibilities.
The most overlooked way to earn some free crypto however is to let the coin itself do the hard work. Let me explain, in one of my previous posts I wrote about the the The Value of Crypto Applications. One of those added benefits of some coins is that you can earn cryptocoins just by holding them.
An example is the Bankera (BNK) coin, if you hold Bankera in your wallet on Spectrocoin you get paid an amount in ether each week. Other coins like Binance and Dimcoin do something along the same lines. Just by holding the coin you get free crypto.
Other interesting coins that give you free crypto are coins like Stealthcoin which have POS. If you have Stealthcoin in your wallet you will periodically start staking (or mining) after you have staked you will be rewarded with some nice free coins.
Even if you are not willing or able to invest large amounts of money into cryptocurrency there are various methods to get some without paying a lot of money. You can earn crypto through bounties, get bargains with Pre-ICO's or just let the coin itself do the heavy lifting. One of the best ways to earn "free" coins however is on the Steem platform. Here you can earn cryptocurrency by submitting quality content, commenting, curating and much more. Also you can earn interest for your Steem Power.
